The Holy Man

A Holy Man is born
He realizes he is gifted
The world realizes he is different
They try to kill him
If he lets them kill him he becomes a martyr
But if he is a martyr he is dead
and they make up stories about him
But, if he can defend himself he goes on
Often he retreats to become even more enlightened
But then, he realizes that for others to become enlightened
they must travel the same path he did
Because each one must travel the path alone

Because the way that can be thought of or spoken of is not the true path or the true way

Each one must experience his or her own truth in each and every moment
